Re: [seul-edu] Linux DTP
Richard,
I checked out the
"Impress" program, supposedly DTP, and wanted to give a followup
report. While the graphics capabilitites are excellent, as far as DTP it's just
a basic program you might use to create cards and one-page flyers. The text
capabilities are extremely limited -- just a few lines here and there, with no
capability to make and link frames. It would be extremely hard to create
anything like a newsletter or booklet with it.
Thanks for the suggestion,
though.
Hi

high school DTP class I am presently using the beta version of Framemaker.
However, it expires 12/31. The academic purchase price after then is over
$700. The principal already said no.
> I have no
idea how I'm supposed to teach a DTP class without DTP software. I checked
out the www.chilliware.net site Doug
posted a few weeks ago, but their DTP product will not be shipped until
January. I'm trying to get a demo.
You could take a look at
www.ntlug.org/~ccox/impress
or
search for dtp at
www.google.com/linux
